"Everyone, line up and gather at the center of the academy for further information about the academy and choose a free technique. Some members of the academy's patrol unit will guide you there," Qian Hu announced before vanishing, not before shooting Qian Meili an angry glare.
He was genuinely frustrated because his niece had just angered her fiancé, who is the young master of the Jiang family, all for a boy she met a year ago, thereby endangering the family's plans.
As soon as Qian Hu disappeared, three members of the academy's patrol unit appeared in his place. They were dressed in black clothes with white linings on their edges.
"Please follow us, esteemed young masters and young ladies from the upper world," they said in an extremely polite and respectful manner.
As the younger generation from the upper realm began to follow them, the patrol unit members occasionally shared information about the Divine Academy.
After a few minutes, they arrived at the center of the academy, where an extremely large library stood.
Then, the elder responsible for managing the library, Tang Liu, appeared and said, "Ho ho, the younger generation from the upper realm this time is quite talented," as he looked through everyone's cultivation stage.
However, of course, he was not able to discern the cultivation of many, like Solarian, because they were protected by their secret protectors.
But soon, Tang Liu's brows furrowed as he noticed someone with a cultivation of just the novice stage, a level that wouldn't normally be accepted into the academy.
"Boy, did you sneak into the academy? Tell me now or face punishment," Tang Liu said with a loud and cold voice, focusing on Ye Fan.
Hearing this, Ye Fan replied in a slightly annoyed tone, "Elder, I did not sneak into the academy but was instead accepted into the academy."
Hearing him, Tang Liu grew angry and retorted, "Junior, you dare lie to me? There is no way our academy would accept trash like you. Now get lost before I become angrier."
Hearing this, Ye Fan became angry and said, "Elder, being at the novice stage doesn't mean that I am talentless." Then Qian Meili also chimed in, trying to protect Ye Fan.
"Yes, Elder Brother Ye Fan was accepted by the headmaster himself, and if you have a problem with his decision, then talk to him yourself. Don't bother Brother Ye Fan.
''If you still don't believe us, then, Brother Ye Fan, show him the acceptance badge you received from the headmaster." Then Ye Fan took a golden badge out of his storage ring and threw it toward Tang Liu.
As Tang Liu caught the golden badge, which bore the headmaster's stamp, he had no doubts that it was authentic. In this lower world, no one possessed the ability to forge a copy of a badge from the Divine Academy.
"Headmaster," Tang Liu murmured, sighing and then falling silent.
He couldn't fathom what was on Qian Hu's mind to accept a talentless boy like Ye Fan into the Divine Academy, a branch of the Heavenly Mythical Academy.
He knew he had to discuss this matter with Qian Hu later. Then, he tossed the badge back to Ye Fan, who caught it.
Meanwhile, Jiang Fang's anger and jealousy surged as he saw Qian Meili defending Ye Fan, clenching his fist until blood dripped from his hand.
"Okay, I believe you were accepted by the headmaster himself, even though it's hard to believe," Tang Liu finally conceded. Turning away from Ye Fan and Qian Meili, he announced, "Everyone, listen carefully. I'm not going to repeat myself. This is the library of the Divine Academy, and today you can select one mythical technique from it for free. After that, you will have to purchase them with mythical crystals or achievement points earned by completing missions."
"Now, select a technique for yourselves and proceed to your dormitories," Tang Liu instructed, confident that none of the students would be disappointed. After all, the books provided by the Heavenly Mythical Academy were meant to educate the younger generation from the top factions of the upper realm. Given their prestigious backgrounds, offering them anything mediocre would only lead to chaos within the academy.
The younger generation eagerly entered the library, each selecting techniques for themselves. Despite already possessing numerous high-quality techniques, the opportunity to acquire an additional top-tier technique for free was too good to pass up.
Solarian, however, was on a quest for something specific. He meticulously checked each technique and its name, searching for a very important and powerful item from the first plotline where Ye Fan was the protagonist.
After not finding what he was looking for on the first five floors, Solarian finally discovered it on the seventh floor.
The book he found was, to say the least, unimpressive at first glance. Its pages were so aged that their color had faded, and its title was barely legible due to wear and tear.
"Heavenly Mythical Saber Art, I finally found you," Solarian murmured, his expression cold and detached. Although Solarian had a slight disdain for sabers, considering them aesthetically unpleasing, but still he know the immense value of the "Heavenly Mythical Saber Art."
In the game, this technique was super strong, one of the best in their world. Sadly, the person who made it was attacked and killed, almost destroying the technique. Later, Ye Fan found it and fixed it, making it very powerful again.
Solarian really wanted this technique because it was Ye Fan's strongest move in the game. But Solarian couldn't let someone else have something he wanted.
Another reason he wanted it was because in part two or three of the game, there was a way to combine two techniques.
Solarian thought about combining his own demonic sword technique with this saber technique to make an even stronger sword move.
While Solarian was looking through the saber technique book,
Ye Fan tapped him on the shoulder and asked with a smile, "Hey, boy can you give that book to me?"
Meanwhile, at the library's ground floor, many young people were waiting with Tang Liu, each holding a technique book they had chosen.
Suddenly, there was a loud explosion from the 7th floor, what they saw was a boy falling into the water surrounding the library.
It was Ye Fan, and he was badly hurt, with all his bones broken and bleeding a lot.
"Brother Ye Fan!" Qian Meili screamed as she jumped into the water to save Ye Fan.
